It was dropped in a7c8fa6 for reasons unknown. In certain situations (the combination of node/fork, mmap, rules, UTF-8 input encoding and reading a UTF-8 BOM) this lead to problems. The UTF-8 BOM should never be there in the first place but we need to handle it without crashing or aborting. Closes openwall#5968
